THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, SATURDAY, JAN. 12, 1918.
GLUCK CONCERT, MUSICAL SHOW, ON NEXT WEEK
Biggest Calendar of Season for Richmond Amusement Lovers.
Next week will be more repleta with amusements for Richmond than any this season. A concert, a musical show and the usual vaudeville and moving picture attractions will provide a busy week for amusement patrons. The chief attraction- of the week will be the return of Madame' Alma Gluck, America's leading prima donna, to the Coliseum to fill the engagement she was forced to abandon here Dec. 5. "So Long Letty." a Morosco musical show, will be the attraction at the Washington Monday night and the customary vaudeville and movie bills will be shown at the Murray, Murrette and I-yric. The Washington will also have its usual moving picture productions. While the disappointment when Madame Gluck was unable to sine hers in
December was great, her appearance on the stage and her little speech, in which she craved ths pardon of her audience, won . tho firm regard ' of everybody present. Her return will be even more of a triumph than her first appearance here would have been. All indications point to the greatest audience that ever attended a musical event in Richmond.
On The Boards
WASHINGTON
Musical comedies that promote laughter from the risa to the fall of the curtain, are more In demand than the sombre sort, and of the former there is not in the amusement field today a more pronounced hit than "So Long Letty," which is coming to the Washington, Monday night, Jan. 14. Nothing quite so gorgeous, eo bright and so entertaining has been offered within the past few years. There is a vrv interesting and funny story to
its plot, and the production is staged in a lavish manner and presented by clever people whom Mr. Morosco has snAci&llv pneaared. and the perform
ance given makes an entertainment
that affords delignttul ana taneiui diversion, and that is all that is intended. The music, especially the orches tration, is full of charm and beautiful ly rendered by an augmented orehes tra, while the song numbers for the most part are of a catchy and ingra t latin g quality.

WASHINGTON SUNDAY June Elvldge, the beautiful and accomplished screen artist, who has
been co-starred In a number of World-1
Pictures Brady-Made, is starred alone in the new World-Picture, "The Tenth Case." Miss Elvidgo plays the role of Claudia Payton. who is a loving daughter and a devoted wife, but who is also the victim of a tno;t unfortunate series of events wLicn place her in a bad IlKht. These circumstances corns about through her kindly good nature HQlcb causes her to befriend Harry Landis, the ton of her husband by a former marriage. Harry Landis shows himself to be an lngrate of the most despicable stripe and be repays Claudla's kindness by involving her in a most distressing situation.

I The Washington theatre has secured "The Ttnth Case" for showing on imday and it is certain that the appearance of this production will be attended by capacity crowds at this popular theatre. JUNE CAPRICE MONDAY Smiling June Caprice, the "Sunshine Maid." will be with us again soon in a nw thrilling William Fox photoplay "Unknown 274." This star's latest picture will be shown at the Washington theatre next Monday afternoon and
will remain at that theatre for two days. In this play Miss Caprice is the child of a man whose father disowns him for marrying as he believes, beneath -his station, the father being an official of a foreign government. The
young man and his wife flee to America but soon after Dola (June's name in the play), is born, the father Is enticed onto a warship of his own couptry and taken back and put in prison for fleeing from army service. The mother gets word that her husband has died in prison. She . puts the child in an orphanage in Maine and ends her life. - Sixteen years later a scheming woman and a man from New York balleve they can dress this child, and sell her to the highest bidder among New York's young spendthrift millionaires. "JUDGEMENT HOUSE" WEDNESDAY Determined that the "Judgment House" should be ready for release at the earliest possible moment, yet insistent that there should be no haste that would mar the production of the Right Hon. Sir Gilbert Parker's well known novel, Commodore J. Stuart Blackton has devoted both day and night to the work of putting the book
into screen form for Paramount. Commodore Blackton, aside from
his natural insistence upon artistic perfection and correction, is doubly determined that the picture shall be a success because of his affection for the author, Sir Gilbert Parker, who has been his guest through the work on "The Judgment House," and has taken a'great interest in its progress, "The Judgment House" is to be the attraction at the Washington theatre on Wednesday and Thursday.
"The AUCTION BLOCK." The story of Rex Beach's greatest picture, "The Auction Block," which is to be shown at the Washington theatre Friday and Saturday is the life history of a beautiful girl who is raised by her parents for the specific purpose of being placed for sale to the highest bidder in the matrimonial market. In due course of time Lorelei meets
the dissolute son of a millionaire, and in accordance with the family plan marries him. It so happens, however, that the young man Is not as wealthy as was at first supposed; and when Lorelei learns this and he finds that he has been duped, they go their separate ways, Lorelei becoming queen of the night world in which she lives. Things go from bad to worse, the situation, as it developes, involving the brother, who has now become a blackmailer of the lowest order, member of an underworld gang; Jarvis Hammon a steel magnate, with a reputation for un-crupulousness; a daughter of one of the mill workmen, who Is seeking revenge on Hammon, and Lorelei's bsl and. . All of these elevents conspire to compromise Lorelei and bring
her to an awakening about the slough of despond Into which she has fallen.
With the awakening comes the de
sire to help her young husband, who now is also at the lowest depths of
despair. At last Lorelei can stand It no longer, and she leaves him. This is. the one thing needed to bring him to his
senses, and he sets himself to work for but one thing, to win her love. From, thi situation developes an ending that is as thrilling as it is eminently satisfactory, bringing the young couple together with a full understanding and appreciation of the path of rectitude.
